Content refresh (or update the content or upgrade content) has become increasingly popular among marketers content.
HubSpot released statistics Digital Marketing Company Bath stating that updating the old blog posts increase in traffic to the old posts by 106%.
Neil Patel o said that he has three full-time employees that updates nearly 90 posts per month.
Here, in a single Grain, we are o updating our content. However, as someone who update some of the content, I realized that not all the posts appear exponentially better after the update. In fact, there are only a few posts remain flat after the update, but sometimes traffic even tanks.
So valuable content update? And if it is, what is the most efficient way to update the content?

How do I Gather Data
I choose to use only the data from Single Grain blog, because Ensuring that all blogs are updated based on the same guidelines and reduce the variables in the data.
Here are the updated guidelines Single Grain:
Rewriting the intro and conclusion
Remove / merge any portion weak

Replacing examples / case studies with a new one, which is currently
I o predict that the domain authority website can affect the performance of the post-update, so using data from only one website, we eliminate the additional variables.
Once I had a list of blog posts that have been updated, I sorted the data to find answers to questions such as:
How long does it take to see results?
Will changing too much copy harm your rankings?
What kind of writing tends to do best?
And much more…
